Hongya Marketplace, Spirit Beast Restaurant.
After more than a month had passed, the customer flow at Spirit Beast Restaurant had greatly decreased.
Now, unless they needed to buy or sell something, cultivators who had already visited the shop would not come again.
However, some cultivators who sold items to Spirit Beast Restaurant saw that the purchase prices for certain items here were higher than other shops.
Therefore, some cultivators who came back from adventuring and obtained various spiritual objects would compare prices among different vendors and always included the Spirit Beast Restaurant as one of their options.
That morning, a black-clothed middle-aged man with a Qi Refinement late-stage cultivation level strode into the Spirit Beast Restaurant.
After entering the shop, he called out familiarly to the person behind the counter, "Taoist Friend Zhou, Lin has brought some business to you again."
